Three months after the death of her childhood friend and first love, Lea Martinez moves to New York to live with her older brother.
Desperate to escape the trauma of that night and fight her lingering insomnia, she drowns herself in the impending changes of a fresh start. Living in a new state, going to a new school and making new friends relieves her from the vicious demons that crawl into her bed at night.
Until she meets a boy who bears an uncanny resemblance to her former best friend.

Callum Wright has no interest in making new friends. Especially not with a girl who's constantly staring at him as if she's seen a ghost.
As he maintains a relationship with a destructive girlfriend, he tries to cope with his parent's divorce and help his mother make ends meet. At school, he wears a cold reputation over his shoulders and is used to the distant stares and cruel whispers of his classmates. The last thing he expects is to meet someone who has an undying desire for his companionship.
Until he meets a girl with a bubbly laugh and vibrant smile that conceals more demons than she'd like to admit.

Frost was originally a text message story that I tried to rewrite earlier this year. I was unsatisfied with the original despite it being a cute little cliché. I knew I could do more with these characters and my writing. Thus, I began to write it as a full-length novel and eventually was stuck and uninspired around the seventh chapter.
While the writing was good, my heart wasn't entirely in it and I eventually lost steam. So I've decided to change the plot to something more my style.
A dark romance with themes for mature audiences.
The idea got me really excited to take on this journey again and I feel like I can create something dark and beautiful from it. I hope you all can enjoy this more than the original as I flesh out the characters and story, but keep the heart of what made Lea and Callum so amazing!
